It might be a rash decision but I've chosen to go for a neck thru design. Here we see the laminated neck in formation and also the tiger myrtle piece for the fingerboard.

Oooooooh snap! This build just took a turn, will the neck core form the inner border of the chambers?
I have to tell you Igor is losing his S$%t over that Tiger Myrtle, not to mention the sassafras skins for the front.

I bet you're itching to get started on it.
So many questions!
what are your neck laminates?
Are you scarf jointing for the headstock or doing an offset F style head?
Will it need a good home when you’ve finished it?
Can you PM me a source for the sassafras?
Will your Timber source accept used body parts as payment? (Asking for Igor)
Enquiring minds need to know!
